This town is colder now
I think it’s sick of us
It’s time to make our move
I’m shakin’ off the rust
I’ve got my heart set
on anywhere but here
I’m staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands just take the wheel
Every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead

Stop and stare
I think I’m moving, but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be
Ohhh

Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re here not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see

They’re tryin’ to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags I never thought I could
Steady feet don’t fail me now,
I’m a run till you can’t walk
But something pulls my focus out, and I’m standing down.

Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone get scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be
Whoa!!!
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re here not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, you don’t need

Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone get scared
I’ve become what I can’t be
Oh, do you see what I see?

[Verse 1]
Uh ohh
Now i stared at you
From across the room
Until both my eyes were faded
I was in a rush
I was out of luck
Now I’m so glad that I waited
Well you were almost there
Almost mine…yeah
They say love ain’t fair
But I’m doing fine…

[Chorus]
Cause i swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that I’ve waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
And it isn’t gonna stop
No it just won’t stop
Uh oh oh
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Now you were fine by night
But when the morning light comes
Comfortable as rain on Sunday
And I’m a lucky soul
That holds your hand so tight
Hope you hear this one day
Don’t fool yourself
This is my truth

[Chorus]
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that i waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
And it ain’t gonna stop
It just won’t stop

[Interlude]
You take this hand
You take this heart
Steal my bones
From 1000 miles apart
Feels so cold
Felt just like its ten shades of winter
And i need the sun
Ohh yeahh
Oh oh no no yeah yeah

[Chorus]
And i swear it’s you
I swear you
I swear it’s you that it waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear its
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that I’ve waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
And it ain’t gonna stop
It just won’t stop
Heyy yeahh
It just won’t stop
No no no no woahh yeah
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
Ohh yeah

Watching myself when I’m taking strides but here comes the moon and it feels and it feels like an informer quick run away hide before they see you, you know it is all, all a glow

Walking on water seems parlays now you got my trust and it feels, and it feels like sabotage when I’m pulling triggers back on myself you know it is all I know, is all I know

And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the outtttt
From the outtt tyrant
Tyrant tyranttt

Feel capable of most anything this crippled bears gonna sing gonna bring you all the years is quick turn around look your shadows could could not beautiful lies for you is what they do ..

And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the outtttt
From the outtt tyrant
Tyrant tyranttt
I’ll stay with apathy im blind but I can see the tyrant to the bone
I’ll stay with apathy im blind but I can see

Don’t justify me
Don’t justify me
Don’t justify meeeeeee
No nononononon

And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the outtttt
And it feels so real from the outside looking in
And it feels so real from the outside
From the outtttt

Tyrant tyrant tyrant oooo ooo ooo

Patience
Took you for everything
Looked like a diamond ring
You are so much longer
That made sense
Apathy in disguise
Crept on you like a spy
Hurt you in ways
You can’t describe

Bridge
Back to the start now
I wont let you go this way now

Chorus
Honesty
Is what you need
It sets you free
Like someone to save you
Let it go
But hurry now
Theres undertow
And I don’t want to lose you now

All right
Sit down and spill your heart
Lets start from the very start
Cause i can see by your eyes
You’re wasted
Your energy comes and goes
You taking your time, you know
Nothing can change what happened, you know

Bridge
Chorus

Now
Now
Oh my
Look at your bright stars fade so
How much can you take?

Chorus

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na (x14)
I said to save you
Save you
Save you
Someone to save you
What you need is
Someone to save you

Do you know where your heart is
Do you think you can find it
Did you trade it for something, somewhere
Better just to have it
Do you know where your love is
Do you think that you lost it
You felt it so strong but nothings
Turned out how you want it
Well bless my soul
You’re a lonely soul
Cause you wont let go
Of anything you hold
Well all I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head
Do you know what your fate is
And are you trying to shake it
You’re doing your best and
You’re best look
You’re praying that you’ll make it
Well bless my soul
You’re a lonely soul
Cause you wont let go
Of anything you hold
Well all I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head
Said all I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Better than you have it
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Do you think you can find it
Better than you have it
Better than you have it
Said all I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head
Said all I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head
Do you know where the end is
Do you think you can see it
Until you get there
Go on
Go ahead and scream it
Just say…

We say good-bye
I turn my back
Run away, run away
So predictable
Not far from here
You see me crack
Like a bone, like a bone
I’m so breakable

And I take everything from you
But you’ll take anything
Won’t you?

Run away, run away
Like a prodigal
Don’t you wait for me
Don’t you wait for me
So ashamed, so ashamed
But I need you so
And you wait for me
And you wait for me

I’m on the road
To who knows where?
Look ahead, not behind
I keep saying
There’s no place to go
Where you’re not there
On your rope, I hold tight
But it’s freeing

And I take everything from you
But you’ll take anything
Won’t you?

Run away, run away
Like a prodigal
Don’t you wait for me
Don’t you wait for me
So ashamed, so ashamed
But I need you so
And you wait for me
And you wait for me

Everybody wants to be right
But only if it’s not day light?
I keep trying to find my way back
My way back

Run away, run away
Like a prodigal
Don’t you wait for me
Don’t you wait for me
So ashamed, so ashamed
But I need you so
And you wait for me
And you wait for me

Runaway
Runaway
Runaway
From you
From you
From you

Angel of Mercy
How did you find me?
Where did you read my story?
Pulled from the papers
Desperate and hardened
seeking a moment every fix

All I wanted to say
All I wanted to do
Is fall apart now
All I wanted to feel
I wanted to love
Its all my fault now
A Tradegy I fear

Angel of Mercy
How did you find me?
How did you pick me up again?
Angel of Mercy
How did you move me?
Why am I on my feet again?
And I see you

Whoa Whoa Whoa
I feel you
Whoa Whoa Whoa

Before just the daylight
Come and i stand by
Waiting to catch the quickest plane
Flying to nowhere
Is better than somewhere
That’s where i’ve been and nothing’s changed

All I wanted to say
All I wanted to do
Is fall apart now
All I wanted to feel
I wanted to love
Its all my fault now
A Tragedy for sure

Angel of Mercy
How did you find me?
How did you pick me up again?
Angel of Mercy
How did you move me?
Why am I on my feet again?
And I see you

Whoa
I feel you
Whoa

Im so lost in you
A tredgy seemed to be over now
A tradegy it seemed to be

Angel of Mercy
How did you find me?
How did you pick me up again?
Angel of Mercy
How did you move me?
Why am I on my feet again?
And I see you

whoa
I feel you
Whoa
I feel you
Oh Whoa
I feel you
Oh Oh Oh

I can’t sleep, no, not like I used to
I can’t breathe in and out like I need to
It’s breaking ice, now, to make any movement
What’s your vice? You know that mine’s the illusion
And all at once (as I’m trying)
I can help you out (just to keep things right)
I’ll be what you need
(I kill myself to make everything perfect for you)
I’ll do anything
Goodbye, apathy
So long, apathy

So don’t sit still, but don’t you move away from here
So goodbye, apathy (as I’m trying)
So long, fancy free (just to keep things right)
Goodbye, apathy
(I kill myself to make everything perfect for you)
I don’t wanna be you

I don’t walk right, not like I used to
There’s a jump in my step as I rush to see you
I could be happy here as long as you’re near to me
As long as you’re close to me
Now that i’m alright (as I’m trying)
I can help you out (just to keep things right)
I’ll be what you need
(I kill myself to make everything perfect for you)
Goodbye, apathy
So goodbye, apathy

So don’t you stop pushing me, I can take so much
So goodbye, apathy (as I’m trying)
So long, fancy free (just to keep things right)
Goodbye, apathy
(I kill myself to make everything perfect for you)
I don’t wanna be you

Everybody is watches you,
everybody is watching me, too (x6)

(I can’t sleep….)

(I can’t sleep….)

[Verse 1]
Hello world
Hope you’re listening
Forgive me if I’m young
For speaking out of turn
There’s someone I’ve been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They’re in their own place trying to make it right
But I’m tired of justifying
So i say you’ll..

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there’s a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
So come home
Oooh

[Verse 2]
I get lost in the beauty
Of everything i see
The world ain’t as half as bad
As they paint it to be
If all the sons
If all the daughters
Stopped to take it in
Well hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now..Yeahh
Well maybe I’m just dreaming out loud
Until then

[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there’s a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
Ever known
So come home
Oooh

[Interlude]
Everything i can’t be
Is everything you should be
And that’s why i need you here
Everything i can’t be
Is everything you should be
And that’s why i need you here
So hear this now

[Chorus}
Come home
Come home
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there’s a war between the vanities
But all i see is you and me
The fight for you is all I’ve ever known
Ever known
So come home
Come home

I’m holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
I’m hearing what you say but I just can’t make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you’re sorry
Didn’t think I’d turn around, and say…

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I’d take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it’s nothing new
I loved you with a fire red-
Now it’s turning blue, and you say…
“Sorry” like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I’m afraid…

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

Bridge (guitar/piano)

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
It’s too late to apologize, yeah
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah-
I’m holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground..
